Visa Request Process for ICST Conferences
Over the past several years the obtaining of a visa has become more complex requiring more attention, energy and time.Additionally, embassies have different requirements. Some may request:
- a letter from ICST verifying intentions of conference participant
- confirmation that the paper was accepted
- a receipt that conference fees have been paid in full
- appearance or interview by conference participant
As a result of these requirements by some
embassies, ICST encourages attendees to apply no later than 3 (three) months
prior the conference.
Letters of “Invitation” will be issued to:
- keynote speakers, presenters, panelists
- any organizing committee member
- people professionally or personally known by a committee member
- conference participant who has paid their registration fee
To request a visa letter please provide the
following information:
- conference/workshop title, date and location
- the amount of fees paid by the requestor
- your intention as either a participant, presenter, committee member, speaker,
panelist, etc.
